Copy letter from William Bate Hardy, Secretary of the Royal Society, to Sir Walter Fletcher 'Thank you for the copy of your letter to the [British Empire] Cancer Campaign. Our letter will be considered at the meeting on Tuesday. I understand from your letter that your delegates [from the Medical Research Council] will not attend the meeting; whether they do so, or not, is of course your business.' Postscript: 'As your delegates will not be present I am not sending to them my draft for consideration at the meeting.' 10 November 1923
